Chapter 3332 - You're Still More Meticulous
Soon, Gongsun Yan and Fengqing Youmeng descended into the city together. Everyone immediately knelt when they saw Fengqing Youmeng.
"This is a lord from Myriadpath Valley, why aren’t you paying respects?" Fengqing Youmeng loudly shouted.
"Greetings to the lord from Myriadpath Valley!"
Countless people inside the city heard and trembled, kneeling.
Gongsun Yan suddenly moved and slapped Fengqing Youmeng, coldly saying, "I didn't tell you to speak!"
"Yes, yes!" Fengqing Youmeng cried and obediently nodded.
"Change to another city!"
"Okay."
Just like that, they moved to another city. This time, Gongsun Yan had her wait outside before he entered. He grabbed a random person on the street and asked, "Do you know where the Infinitum Mundus is?"
"Never heard of it."
Gongsun Yan pursed his lips. He proceeded to stealthily move around the city, asking people one by one. But no matter how he asked, the answer was always that they hadn't heard of it.
"Damn! Like I said, how could I possibly hit the jackpot with a one in a million chance?"
After asking over a hundred people, he had completed the task assigned by House Yumo and didn't continue. If the Infinitum Mundus was near Skydome, it would be impossible for no one to know after asking a hundred random people in an infinitum-class world.
He didn't know, though, that in this city, each person had a small silver bug on them. Yin Chens were the one thing Tianming had plenty of. Of course, it was also because he made the wonderians thoroughly revere him.
Gongsun Yan spat and didn't continue dwelling on the matter. Instead, he left the city.
Fengqing Youmeng naturally didn't dare to wander and was still waiting for him outside. The task Tianming gave her was to smoothly see him off, and that was enough.
"Why not just kill him? It isn’t like you can't," Fengqing Youmeng asked before Gongsun Yan came out.
"They might be conducting a carpet search. No one in an ordinary mundus dares to kill someone from Myriadpath Valley. If they see the subsoul of the person who went to the Skydome Mundus shatter, it’d be a dead giveaway," Tianming said.
"You're still more meticulous!" Fengqing Youmeng praised.
"Presumptuous!" Tianming scolded.
"Your Majesty, I dare not," Fengqing Youmeng fearfully said. Of course, she was pretending. She knew that Tianming would be approachable as long as she worked for him.
Gongsun Yan came out at this moment, gloomy, as he hadn’t hit the one in a million jackpot.
"My lord," Fengqing Youmeng obediently greeted.
"Mhm." Gongsun Yan was about to return to Myriadpath Valley. After taking a few steps, he looked back at Fengqing Youmeng.
She was dressed in pure white, as pristine as snow. Myriadpath Valley had no such style. The key point was that even though Gongsun Yan ranked around three hundred on the Fortuna Ranking, not many women in Myriadpath Valley fancied him because he was a black ring disciple. Black ring disciples were naturally looked down upon, the only exception being Tianming.
Thus, he felt somewhat frustrated in that regard.
He squinted and smiled, saying, "You're lucky."
"My lord, what do you mean?" Fengqing Youmeng asked in confusion.
"I'll give you a chance to serve me," Gongsun Yan said.
"What?" Fengqing Youmeng gritted her teeth.
"You, an ant in this mundus, have the chance to serve my sacred body from Myriadpath Valley. You're indeed fortunate. I advise you not to be ungrateful." Gongsun Yan's lips curved into a wicked smile. That was the privilege of Myriadpath Valley, which he had enjoyed before. It was very satisfying!
"This...." Fengqing Youmeng was troubled. She had almost passed this test. Unexpectedly, it was her appearance that caused the problem.
All along, Tianming had ignored her, making her believe that the top disciples of Myriadpath Valley, who were far superior to Li Fan, wouldn’t have any designs on her. As a result, trouble had arisen.
She forced a smile, saying, "My lord, I don't mind, but I must say, I have a harem of over a thousand male consorts. I wonder if you mind...."
Gongsun Yan was speechless. He’d been interested in her beauty, but upon hearing that she had more experience than him, he immediately stepped back two steps, fearing he might embarrass himself and be taken advantage of. He looked at Fengqing Youmeng with disdain and said, "You look good, but you're unchaste and vulgar. What a pity."
"My lord's teachings are correct! If I’d known I would meet you today, I would’ve remained pure to serve you. It's only because I lacked this blessing. Alas!" Fengqing Youmeng mournfully said.
Seeing her beautiful figure, Gongsun Yan was somewhat tempted, but the thought of her being a man-eater made him uncomfortable. He could only insult her a few more times in frustration. After insulting her, he said no more and turned, flying toward the stareye.
He had finally left.
Tianming watched him disappear from the stareye before appearing himself; one hurdle was over.
"Hey, hey, didn't I do well?" Fengqing Youmeng, full of coquettishness, came up to claim credit.
"Not bad, not stupid," Tianming mocked.
"Your standards are really high!" Fengqing Youmeng pouted, then continued, "I don't care, you have to compensate me."
"How?" Tianming asked.
"That guy insulted me for a long time, I'm very upset. When you return to Myriadpath Valley, if you get the chance, beat him up for me," Fengqing Youmeng said through gritted teeth.
"Still holding a grudge?" Tianming laughed.
"Can't I? After all, I'm your subordinate. If someone bullies me and you don't stand up for me, how can you maintain your authority?" Fengqing Youmeng scoffed, saying, "Besides, I sacrificed for you today, so you have to take responsibility."
"Fine. I'll beat him up for you," Tianming smiled.
"That's more like it, make sure you really put your back into it when you trounce him!" Fengqing Youmeng crossed her arms, looking in the direction Gongsun Yan had left, fuming. "What a brave man! He dares to look down on a woman of the Galactic Emperor, Pathkeeper Li, Infinitum’s lord, and the most handsome man in the universe?"
Tianming laughed. To be honest, he thought Fengqing Youmeng had done well, using her wits to help him through a crisis. But his heart was icy!
"There’s an eighty percent probability it's a blanket search! Asking one person doesn't count, they even went deep into Wondrium to ask.... That can only mean that House Yumo must’ve suffered a terrible defeat!"
He had subdued the Yumo Blood Crucible and destroyed the Hellfiend. He no longer had to worry about the starblood matter.
However, he still worried about cultivating and improving.
"No choice, I have to settle down for a while. If it doesn't work, I'll let Li Fan go to Myriadpath Valley to gather information."
***
Suishen Cave in Myriadpath Valley, which had been quiet for many days, suddenly became lively. Many House Suishen members headed toward the Suishen Ancestral Hall. Soon, at least a few thousand people had gathered there.
Even when the incident between Tianming and Suishen Yao had been exposed, there weren't so many house members present. After arriving, everyone was quiet, only whispering.
"It's rare for the old eminent to summon us."
"He’s been reclusive for many years."
"It means he might announce something important today...."
Everyone exchanged glances, nodding in agreement.
